Absorption tester | Automatic scanning liquid absorptometer KM500win No.2071

Liquid penetration behavior of paperboard is important, since it is closely related towater fastness, printability and processibility. Paper products are usually sized for improving water fastness and writing quality. The degree of sizing is an essential factor of paper quality. This absorptmeter is based on the Bristow’s method, provided with a fundamentally improved measurement system, and fully automatic measurement procedures with computer control

Spiral scanning of the head enables measurement of small specimens (about 10 cm square),
Direct reading of liquid transfer volume from the moving speed of the meniscus in the communicating tube, not from the area.
Computerized control of scanning and reading.
These features permit automated Bristow measurement in a short time.
